Rep Power: 0 awesome, can't wait to see pics.
And when I first did my springs on my civic, me and my friend installed them in his drive way in about 2.5 hrs.
Coilovers took about 30 minutes

Rep Power: 0 cool that u have a drop.
depending on how low it is u should be fine with stock struts. i have been dropped for over a year and have been through rough terrain (mostly by accident) with my car and still the stock ones are fine.
from my experience the front always takes longer... but the more u change springs the faster it gets obviously. all about the learning curve.
